VoCore not listed as AP anymore

Hi,

i just got my Vocore2 yesterday and already "bricked" it. It came with OpenWrt 18.06.2, r7676-cddd7b4c77 preinstalled, and i sysupgraded it through luci with the https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/ ... pgrade.bin file.

Now if i attach power to the vocore2 the red led lights up, then it starts to blink quickly, then blinks slowly then again it returns to static light.
I suspect openwrt boots, but it seems openwrt comes with wlan disabled. Bummer! It means i should connect it through other means and either reflash it or change the wlan settings. Am i right with this?

It seems the cheapest way would be to get an USB2TTL adapter and some jumper wires. Is this true? Is there no other way to force the wlan to show up? Do i have to solder or can i somehow attach the wires to the vocore without soldering? I have no soldering tools.

Sorry about my silly question, this is my first time with openwrt, with embedded devices and with mayn things.

Thank You very much!

Hi,
Currently situation you must use USB2TTL to read from it.
Just three cables connect to UART2, TX RX GND :)
